Embodiment
The embodiment on illustrative embodiment is described referring now to different accompanying drawings.Although the description provides Detailed example on possible embodiment, it should be mentioned, however, that these details should be as example, and Scope of the present application will not be construed as limiting.
By using 802.11ac infrastructure mode of operations, AP can upload mark of delivering letters, the fixation in fixed channel Channel can be main channel.The width of the channel can be 20MHz, and/or the channel can be BSS working channel.STA can To be connected using the channel to be established with AP.Primary channel access mechanism in 802.11 systems can have conflict avoidance Carrier Sense Multiple Access (CSMA/CA).In this mode of operation, the STA including AP can perceive prevailing channel.Such as Fruit detects the channel busy, then STA can retract.Transmission can be limited to by the appointed time by specifying the list in BSS Individual STA is performed.
In 802.11n, high-throughput (HT) STA can be communicated using the channel with a width of 40MHz.The processing The continuous channel with a width of 40MHz can be formed come real by the way that 20MHz main channel is combined with 20MHz adjacent channels It is existing.
In 802.11ac, very high-throughput (VHT) STA can support with a width of 20MHz, 40MHz, 80MHz and/or 160MHz channel.40MHz and/or 80MHz channels are by combining and similar continuous of 802.11n as described above What 20MHz channels were formed.160MHz channels can not connect by 8 continuous 20MHz channels of combination and/or by combining two Continuous 80MHz channels are formed.This processing is referred to alternatively as 80+80 configurations.For this 80+80 configurations, by channel Data after coding can be transmitted by piecewise analytic device, and the piecewise analytic device can be divided into two streams.At one Or it can individually perform inverse FFT (" IFFT ") and/or Time Domain Processing on multiple or each stream.It is described Stream is mapped to two channels, and/or the data can be transmitted.On the receiver, the mechanism can be inverted, and/or can So that data splitting is sent to MAC.
802.11af and/or 802.11ah supports time 1GHz mode of operations.With making in 802.11n and/or 802.11ac Multi-channel operation bandwidth and/or carrier wave are compared, and the multi-channel operation bandwidth and/or carrier wave of these specifications relative can be reduced. 802.11af supports 5MHz, 10MHz and/or 20MHz bandwidth in TV white spaces (TVWS) frequency spectrum, and/or 802.11ah to support 1MHz, 2MHz, 4MHz, 8MHz and/or 16MHz bandwidth of non-TVWS frequency spectrums are used.Possibility use-case on 802.11ah is Support instrument Type Control/machine type communication (MTC device in grand overlay area).The ability that MTC device has is possible to It is limited, including the limited bandwidth of support and/or supports long battery life demand.
Support one or more or multiple channels and/or the wlan system of channel width (such as 802.11n, 802.11ac, 802.11af and/or 802.11ah) channel for being designated as main channel can be included.The main channel can With but not necessarily there is the bandwidth equal with the maximum public bandwidth of operation that one or more of BSS or all STA is supported.It is main Channel width may be by the STA that minimum bandwidth mode of operation is supported in the one or more or all STA to be worked in BSS Limitation.In the example on 802.11ah, if there is the STA (such as MTC type equipments) for supporting 1MHz patterns, then Even if other STA in AP and/or BSS can support 2MHz, 4MHz, 8MHz, 16MHz or other channel width mode of operations, The bandwidth of main channel also can be 1MHz.Carrier sense and/or NAV, which are set, can depend on main channel state.For example, if Main channel is busy (such as because only supporting the STA of 1MHz mode of operations to be carrying out the transmission for AP), then even if mostly Several available bands keeps idle and/or available, and whole available bandwidth also still can be considered as busy.
In the U.S., the available band for being available for 802.11ah is from 902MHz to 928MHz.In South Korea, available band is 917.5MHz to 923.5MHz;And in Japan, the available band it is 916.5MHz to 927.5MHz., can according to country code Total bandwidth for 802.11ah is 6MHz to 26MHz.
Enhanced distributed channel access (EDCA) is the base in order to support the QoS of priority ordering and introduce in 802.11 This DCF (distributed coordination function) extension.EDCA supports the medium access based on contention.Show in Fig. 1 in 802.11n EDCA operation.Point coordination function (PCF) can support the limited time service, wherein AP meetings using the channel access of contention-free One or more of poll BSS or each STA.AP can send wheel after PCF interface intervals (" PIFS ") have been waited Message is ask, and if the client information not sent, then it can return to empty data frame.This to low duty ratio and/or It is to determine for severe/bursty traffic, is fair and/or effective.The channel access controlled by Hybrid Coordination Function (HCF) (HCCA) can be enhancing to PCF, wherein AP can in contention period (CP) and/or contention-free period (CFP) poll STA.It can rely on a poll to transmit one or more or multiple frames.
Efficient WLAN (HEW) potential application includes emerging usage scenario (such as data transfer of competitive sports), height User density scene (such as railway station and/or enterprise/retail environment), and/or for transmission of video dependency degree lifting scene, And/or the wireless service for medical applications.
In 802.11 current embodiments (802.11a/g/n/ac/ah), transmitting procedure, which assume that, to be allocated All bandwidth all be used for transmit and/or receive.OFDMA is that a kind of be used in LTE and/or WiMax is existed with solving picture Like that by method of all channel distributions to the shortage efficiency caused by the scheduling of resource of unique user in 802.11ac.It is if straight Connect and OFDMA is applied to WiFi, then be possible to that back compatible sex chromosome mosaicism can be introduced.Especially, the money based on cooperation orthogonal piece Source distribution (COBRA) introduces OFDMA methods to solve WiFi back compatibles sex chromosome mosaicism and/or especially because based on channel Recessive efficiency caused by scheduling of resource is low.For example, COBRA can realize one or more or it is multiple compared with Transmission on small frequency-time resource unit.One or more or multiple users can be assigned to that one or more Nonoverlapping frequency-time resource unit, and/or be able to carry out transmitting and/or receive (such as simultaneously).Subchannel can be determined Justice is into the fundamental frequency resource unit that STA can be distributed to by AP.For example, it is contemplated that back compatible 802.11n/ac need Ask, subchannel can be defined as 20MHz channels.These subchannels can have the bandwidth less than 20MHz, and/or can be by it It is restricted to 20MHz bandwidth.
Technology in COBRA can be included as the multi-carrier modulation on transmission and encoding scheme basis, filtering, time domain, frequency Domain, spatial domain and/or polarizing field.COBRA schemes one or more can be realized using following:OFDMA sub-channelizings, SC- FDMA sub-channelizings and/or filter bank multi-carrier sub-channelizing.Following one or more features can be transmitted with COBRA and tied Close and use:Coverage extension method, user packet method, channel access method, the preamble design for low overhead, wave beam Shaping and/or detection method, frequency and/or time synchronization method and/or chain circuit self-adaptive method.
It has been discussed herein with multi-user and/or single user multiple parallel (MU-PCA) channel access scheme.Used with pair The COBRA and/or multi-user/single user parallel channel access for claiming transmitting/reception of bandwidth can include following one or more :Downlink parallel channel access for multiple/unique user, the up-link for multiple/unique user are believed parallel Road access, for multiple/unique user combination downlink and up-link parallel channel access, support to be used for SU-PCA And/or COBRA the MCS such as not and/or not etc. the design of transimission power, for support to have used the transmission with symmetric bandwidth/ The PHY designs of the multi-user of reception/single user parallel channel access and/or the MAC/PHY multi-user of process, and/or mixing are simultaneously Row channel access.MU-PCA discusses the COBRA and/or multi-user/single user using transmitting/reception with asymmetric bandwidth Parallel channel accesses, and can include being used for the multi-user/single user for having used transmission/reception with asymmetric bandwidth among these Downlink, up-link and/or the MAC of the up-link of combination and downlink of parallel channel access are designed and/or mistake Journey, and/or the multi-user/single user parallel channel access for supporting to have used transmission/reception with asymmetric bandwidth PHY is designed and/or process.
In the technology of such as scalable channel usage etc, STA can be expanded based on channel and/or portfolio availability Contract its transmission bandwidth.
By using OFDMA in 802.11, such as expansible channel usage and/or improved space reuse can be allowed Etc technology.Due to the problem of 802.11 standards are peculiar (such as how being worked for 802.11 standards), these technologies are necessary It is adapted to work in 802.11.
STA can determine whether channel is available using clear channel assessment (CCA) (CCA) threshold value.STA can measure letter Energy in road, and/or based on the energy in channel whether beyond CCA threshold values come determine its whether can be used for transmit.The threshold value Can be fixed and/or dynamic.Figure 2 illustrates energy measuring idle channel process.
The information related to channel availability is probably useful, and the information can be enabled for Overlapping Basic Service Set (OBSS) the space reuse processing of STA scalable channel usage and/or lifting.Scalable channel usage can allow STA to exist Transmission bandwidth internal dynamic selection/cancellation (son) channel (such as quality (such as whether channel is busy) based on channel).It can expand Contracting channel usage is probably the possibility technology for 802.11 systems (for example, 802.11ax) based on OFDMA.Can in order to realize Scalable channel usage, STA/AP can identify the subchannel being used, and/or can use the information to rightly it is scalable its Channel width.
For the transmission inside identical BSS, multi-user's Frame switch between STA/AP can realize that available subchannels are selected Select.For OBSS STA, information and/or technology can be used for enabling scalable channel usage and/or room for improvement reuse.Change The technology for the space reuse OFDMA transmission entered in OBSS would is that useful.
STA is possible to wake up among OFDMA transmission, and/or is possible to mistakenly determine channel busy or free time. In the scene that STA wakes up in the transmission between AP and other STA, STA can perform clear channel assessment (CCA) (CCA) before transmission. Due to STA may not hear OFDMA establish frame (such as OFDMA transmission for) and/or RTS/CTS establish frame (such as For non-OFDMA transmission), it is thus possible to setting of transmitting continuous time NAV can not be directed to, and/or energy inspection can be performed Survey clear channel assessment (CCA) (CCA).
For the non-OFDMA transmission not in concealed nodes scene, STA can measure the energy in transmission medium And/or whether assessment medium is busy.For OFDMA transmission, in non-concealed node scene, the son heard once in a while is believed Energy in road is also possible to be less than CCA threshold values, consequently, it is possible to which STA is possible to assume that the channel is empty.Such case has It may transmit in the case that holding transmits identical power spectral density with non-OFDMA during the transmission and occur in OFDMA.And this The probability clashed during up-link OFDMA is transmitted may be increased.This is shown in figure 3, wherein aobvious The CCA in UL-OFDMA is shown.The non-OFDMA transmission energies that Fig. 3 has used the square frame 301 being filled to show on STA5 exceed Threshold value, and square frame 302 and 303 rather than 304,305 is filled to show that the OFDMA transmission energies on STA5 are not super with energy level Go out CCA threshold values.Especially, non-OFDMA transmission can be OBSS transmission.As shown in figure 3, compared with OFDMA is transmitted, for non- The CCA threshold values of OFDMA transmission are of a relatively high.In some scenes, CCA threshold values can be used (such as being used by AP), thus be had Higher possibility (such as can be easier to obtain) in one or more subchannels and/or is less likely (such as being more difficult to obtain) OBSS space reuses are performed in other one or more subchannels.Here technology can be used to ensure that STA can be present OFDMA performs clear channel assessment (CCA) in the case of transmitting.

Fig. 4 shows WLAN (WLAN) equipment of illustration.One or more features described herein can use one Individual or multiple equipment is implemented.WLAN can include but is not limited to access point (AP) 102, stand (STA) 110 and/or STA 112.STA 110 and 112 can be associated with AP 102.Especially, WLAN can be configured to implement the communication marks of IEEE 802.11 Accurate one or more agreements, can include channel access scheme, such as DSSS, OFDM, OFDMA etc. among these.WLAN can To be worked in such as pattern of infrastructure mode, self-organizing mode etc..
The WLAN to be worked in infrastructure mode can include one to be communicated with one or more associated STA Individual or multiple AP.The AP and/or STA associated with AP (one or more) can include Basic Service Set (BSS).Citing comes Say, AP 102, STA 110 and/or STA112 can include BSS 122.Extended service set (ESS) can include one or more One or more STA associated AP (there are one or more BSS) and/or AP.AP can access and/or be docked to distribution System (DS) 116, wherein the system can be wiredly and/or wirelessly, and the portfolio for being to and from AP can be transported. The STA gone to outside WLAN in WLAN portfolio can be received on AP in WLAN, and the AP can be by the business Amount is sent to the STA in WLAN.Business from the destination (such as going to server 118) outside STA to the WLAN in WLAN Amount may be sent to that the AP in WLAN, and the portfolio can be sent to destination by the AP, such as be sent to via DS 116 Network 114, to send it to server 118.The portfolio between STA inside WLAN can pass through one or more AP To send.For example, source STA (such as STA 110) can have the portfolio for destination STA (such as STA 112). Portfolio can be sent to AP 102 by STA 110, and/or portfolio can be sent to STA 112 by AP 102.
WLAN can be operated in self-organizing mode.Self-organizing mode WLAN is referred to alternatively as independent basic service set (IBBS).In self-organizing mode WLAN, STA may communicate directly with each other (for example, STA 110 can be led to STA 112 Letter, and this communication by AP without being route).
The equipment of such as equipment of IEEE 802.11 (such as IEEE 802.11AP in BSS) etc can use beacon frame To declare the presence of wlan network.AP (such as AP 102) can upload mark of delivering letters in channel, as an example, the channel can be Fixed channel, such as main channel.STA can be connected using channel (such as main channel) to be established with AP.
One or more STA and/or one or more AP can use the Carrier Sense Multiple Access with conflict avoidance (CSMA/CA) Channel Access Mechanism.In CSMA/CA, STA and/or AP can sense main channel.For example, if STA will Send data, then STA can sense main channel.If it is busy to sense main channel, then STA can retract.As an example, WLAN and/or one part can be configured to cause at the appointed time (such as specify BSS in) there is a STA to perform biography It is defeated.Channel access can include RTS and/or CTS signalings.For example, request transmission (RTS) Frame switch can be by transmission equipment Transmission, and/or clear to send (CTS) frame can be sent by receiving device.If as an example, AP will to STA send data, So AP can send RTS frames to STA.If STA is ready to receive data, then STA can be responded with CTS frames.

Several channel measurements and/or corresponding request and/or response mechanism can be defined herein.Passed for OFDMA For defeated, systematic function can be optimized by obtaining the more information operated on subchannel.Subchannel measures and/or corresponding Request/response mechanism and/or process be not defined also.The UL-OFDMA from STA1 and STA2 to AP is happens is that in Figure 5 Transmission.In the case of using previous CCA processes, non-OBSS STA5 are possible to estimate that the channel is unavailable.For For STA4,5 and 6, previous CCA may the failure based on the measurement energy that it averages on whole transmission bandwidth. For non-OBSS STA3 and 4, the energy level for generating less than CCA threshold values can be caused over the whole width by averaging, and/or Cause to clash in OFDMA ession for telecommunication.For OBSS STA6, according to the energy in subchannel, make even over the whole width Average can cause to produce the energy level more than CCA threshold values, and/or cause space reuse transmission hindered.For in OFDMA schemes In enable the technology of appropriate clear channel assessment (CCA) and would be beneficial for preventing these problems.
Method, system and/or equipment described herein can improve the weight of the space in OBSS using dominant signaling information With, and/or inside BSS OFMDA transmission in reduce concealed nodes.The processing can be solved to the letter about channel availability The demand of breath, the information about channel availability can be directed to OBSS STA and/or local concealed nodes enable scalable channel With and/or room for promotion reuse.For these systems, equipment and/or method, on son letter used in different STA The information in road can be noticed having to explicitly with signal.So doing can identify OBSS STA is available for it to use (such as while using) Subchannel.OFDMA transmission can occur in main BSS, and/or there may exist and the adjacent and/or again of OBSS transmission occurs Folded BSS.
AP may decide which frequency band is used in space reuse pattern.AP/STA is received and can resisted with robust (robust) Interference.AP can be sent to be believed for showing that the subchannel for distributing to the AP is available for OBSS STA to be used for the control of space reuse Breath.Example on the STA of this " robust is to anti-interference " can include following one or more:Away from any possible The STA (such as positioned at BSS immediate vicinities rather than close to BSS edges) of OBSS transmission and/or interference beyond BSS can be offset STA (such as having used the STA of advanced interference suppressing receiver).AP can send the space on respective sub-channel/subband The information of reuse, such as the customizing messages based on subchannel/subband.Information on space reuse can correspond to one Or multiple particular sub-bands can be used for the possibility of space reuse (such as OBSS space reuses).For one or more or For each corresponding subchannel/subband, the information on OBSS space reuses of respective sub-channel/subband can be similar It is and/or different.For example, AP can be able to be that OBSS space reuses connect by one or more subchannels/subband instruction The similar and/or different level of interference/threshold value received.In some scenes, the interference threshold/grade can be used (such as By AP uses) so that OBSS space reuses more likely carried out in one or more subchannels (such as be easier obtain) and/ Or it is less likely to carry out (such as being more difficult to obtain) in other one or more subchannels.For example, in one or more In subchannel, the receptible interference threshold/grade of OBSS space reuses institute is possible to relatively low (such as to receive less dry Disturb).As an example, in other one or more subchannels, the receptible interference threshold/grade of OBSS space reuses institute has can Can meeting higher (such as higher interference can be received).
Can be because channel conditions and/or coming from other STA continually changing interference and changing to jamproof robustness. Robustness can be estimated as " long-term ", wherein change can be averaged and/or will follow the trail of long-term action, or the robustness also may be used To be estimated as " short-term ", this will make assessment (such as instant etc.) to robustness.Especially, AP can be secondary from retransmitting Number, the conflict number estimated during STA transmission is gone to and/or relative to overlapping BSS STA geographical position (such as positioned at The STA at BSS edges is compared to the STA positioned at BSS centers) etc information in collect this knowledge.The information can be by one It is or multiple or each STA is dominant to be fed to AP.These embodiments can be used for unicast transmission, and/or not be used in wide Broadcast and/or multicast transmission.
In downlink transmission, robust can send (and/or being sent by other node) to jamproof STA to OBSS For indicating that it can resist the information for the space reuse transmission that OBSS STA are implemented with robust.
In an uplink transmission, robust can also be to STA that is anti-interference and/or causing very little to disturb to other OBSS OBSS sends (and/or being sent by other node) and is used to indicate that it can be resisted the space reuse that OBSS STA are implemented with robust and passed Defeated information, thus facilitates space reuse to transmit.(such as close to BSS centers rather than leaned on away from any possible OBSS transmission Nearly BSS edges) STA can other OBSS be transmitted with the interference that cause very little.The scene of transmitting power control is being performed by STA In, this processing is very helpful.To perform the STA of transmission its reception processing robust can be made to resist OBSS using low MCS Interference.

OFDMA_margin can be configured to allow higher/lower CCA threshold values, such as based on subchannel/subband.
HE STA of the channel width equal to n MHz of work subchannel can be based on Sub_channel_CCA_level (dBm)=f (CCA_STA (dBm), sub_channel_size_Penalty (dB), transimission power pattern, OFDMA_margin) (dBm) its sub-channel_CCA_level (subchannel CCA grades) is set.In one example, Sub_channel_ CCA_level (dBm)=CCA_STA (dBm)-Penalty (dB)-OFDMA_margin+TP_mode_margin (dBm) and/ Or if the energy level inside subchannel bandwidth is more than or equal to this value, then be possible to that PHY can be caused to set PHY- Probability of the CCA.sub_channel_indicate (BUSY) within 4 μ s is more than 90%.CCA_level_sub_channel And/or sub-channel size can be pre-estimated and/or set.
(such as exhaustive) subchannel CCA of an illustration is described herein.STA can scan possible OFDMA Subchannel assignment (such as one or more or all possible OFDMA subchannel assignments).As an example, show in Figure 11 A The possible parameter configuration for the 802.11ax transmission in 20MHz is gone out.The CCA threshold values that can be performed are 16 more altogether It is individual, contain among these following one or more:Nine comparison (letters in Figure 11 A for the RU9 with 26 tone RU Road 1-9);For with 52 tone RU plus 26 tone RU RU5 4 comparisons (as an example, the RU of 26 tones by Compare) (the channel 10-13 in Figure 11 A);For two ratios with 102 data tones plus 26 tone RU RU3 Compared with (channel 14 and/or 15 in Figure 11 A);And/or the comparison (channel 16 in Figure 11 A) for 242 tone RU.Channel 16 comparison and previous CCA threshold measurements and/or more similar.It can be performed in analog domain one or more or each Performed based on individual energy measurement, such as the time domain energy measurement for having isolated expected frequency execution afterwards by wave filter.In number One or more or each energy measurement can be performed in word domain, such as after FFT processing is performed to reception signal Perform.As it was earlier mentioned, it is expected that the energy in tone can be measured and/or compared with threshold value.Figure 11 B are to have used channel 1- 14 another example.
For CCA, it can be assumed that transmission bandwidth { CCA_tx } with corresponding CCA threshold values and/or with one or One or more subchannel bandwidths { CCA_sub_tx } of multiple corresponding CCA threshold values.If the energy in channel is without departing from threshold Value, then the PHY_CCA.indication for being used for transmission bandwidth { CCA_tx } can be arranged to 0.Doing so may insure that Gu And old STA.If the energy in channel exceeds CCA threshold values, then will can continue in transmission bandwidth { CCA_tx } and/or frame The PHY_CCA.indication of time (d) is arranged to 1.For the CCA processes based on subchannel, subchannel CCA Estimation can be activated.The energy of one or more or each sub-channels can be measured.For one or more or each For sub-channels, if the energy in subchannel is not above CCA_level_sub_channel threshold values, then will can use It is arranged to 0 in the PHY_CCA.sub-channel_indication of subchannel bandwidth { CCA_sub_tx }.If in subchannel Energy exceed CCA_level_sub_channel threshold values, then can be by sub-channel size { CCA_sub_tx } PHY_ CCA.sub-channel_indication is arranged to 1.Figure 12 illustrates a kind of technology of illustration.
The simplified CCA based on subchannel can be provided herein.One or more or each STA can be scanned CCA compares processing (for example, 9 one or more or all CCA compare, it is assumed that be 26 tone RU distribution).With the method for exhaustion Compare, complexity can be reduced by so doing.Used CCA threshold values assume that energy transmits over the whole width.I.e. Make to be that channel can also be identified as being busy in the scene of a RU distribution.For the CCA mistakes based on subchannel For journey, subchannel CCA estimations will be activated.The energy of one or more or each sub-channels can be measured.For one For individual or multiple or each sub-channels, if the energy in subchannel is without departing from CCA_level_sub_channel Threshold value, then the PHY_CCA.sub-channel_indication of subchannel bandwidth { CCA_sub_tx } can be arranged to 0. If the energy in subchannel is beyond CCA_level_sub_channel threshold values, then can be by sub-channel size { CCA_ Sub_tx } PHY_CCA.sub-channel_indication be arranged to 1.Figure 13 shows an exemplary techniques.
